β 10y agoThe graph of acceleration vs. time would be a straight line at zero acceleration for constant velocity. This is because constant velocity means there is no change in velocity over time, so the acceleration is zero.
Any curved line will indicate a change in acceleration. Straight lines with slope indicate a steady velocity and straight lines with zero slope indicate a lack of motion.If the X axis (left to right) is for time and the Y axis (up and down) is for speed, it would curve up.
It is radial the velocity in a direction towards or away from a fixed point of reference (the origin) at a given time. The velocity time graph takes no account of motion in a direction across the radial direction.
It represents that the object is remaining at a fixed distance. Typically that means it is not moving.
The steepness is usually referred to as the slope,usually being a fraction, like 5/2. The numerator represents the rise, and the denominator represents the run. Typically, this is remembered by rise over run. One must count, for this example, up 5 units and to the right 2 units to find the next point on the line.
A straight line with a gradient > 0 represents a constant rate of acceleration.
If the line slants up and to the right, it has a positive slope. If it is slanting up and to the left, it has a negative slope.
slanting. neither a right angle or a multiple of it.
If the graph is a straight line through the origin, sloping upwards to the right, then it is a proportional linear relationship.
Velocity-time graphs provide a visual representation of an object's velocity over time, making it easy to interpret the object's motion. They can help identify changes in velocity, determine acceleration or deceleration, and calculate distance traveled. Comparing multiple velocity-time graphs can also help analyze and compare the motion of different objects.
A positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is moving in the positive direction (e.g., right or up) and experiencing a constant acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration of the object.

If scales are too big, the right picture to represent an item displayed on a graph is not used, or if the graph doesn't start on zero, all are ways the data can be misrepresented!

A graph is typically represented in terms of a y-axis (vertical), x-axis (horizontal) and sometimes a z-axis as well (at right angles to the y & x) if it's a 3-D graph.
